Gravis Ultio Ex

Written in Latin.

Hic in sepulcro,
I am a tergum vindictam!
Tempus es tuis pennance reddere!
Cave: induxi meum, odio!

Lorem mei fictili sepultura
Sed, ut evertat omnia
Vegetabili, animali et minerali!
Cave: Apocalypsi prope est!

Interfectionis meae finis,
Et campanis ecclesiae amplius theloneo
Lorem spiritum meum deficiensque mortuus.
Cave: habita in vita mea!

Manus tuae super humero
Curabitur faucibus nunc in vestri alius.
Ut audivit autem admonitio mea est.
Haud postulo ut caveret, ego te vidi in inferno!

Author's Note

Full Translation:

Revenge from the Grave

Here in my tomb,
I am back with a vengeance!
It is time for you to pay your pennance!
Beware: I have brought my hatred!

Free of my earthen burial,
Now, to destroy everything;
Vegetable, animal and mineral!
Beware: Apocalypse is near!

Slaughter is my goal,
And church bells shall no longer toll
Feel my breath, dead and decaying.
Beware: your life is mine for the taking!

My hand is on your shoulder,
The other now closing on your throat.
You should have heeded my warnings well.
No need to beware; I shall see you in Hell!

Ohh latin and many other languages, how I wish I knew them. I love how you write the translation too, thank you again for that.

I love the rhyming especially with this part:
" I am back with a vengeance!
It is time for you to pay your pennance!"
Pennance with only one n I believe, penance.

I like this line here too:
"Vegetable, animal and mineral!"

Love the last two stanza's as well, very nice dark write. I love how i could picture someones hand on my shoulder and throat in that last stanza... creepy.

Thank you for the translation. A powerful poem. I believe the more languages you can speak. The more strength in word you will have. I like the directness of the poem. A strong ending to a outstanding poem.
